Mauricio Umansky revealed the reasons behind his fallout with brother-in-law Rick Hilton and the subsequent Hilton family feud, attributing it to his departure from the real estate firm Hilton and Hyland after being denied equity and partnership, leading to the establishment of his own brokerage, The Agency. Despite the family tensions and his separation from Kyle Richards, Umansky and Rick Hilton have since mended their working relationship, although the feud had significant impacts on family dynamics, especially affecting Kyle Richards’ relationship with her sister Kathy Hilton.
Mauricio Umansky reveals his falling out with the Hilton family was due to his desire for equity and partnership at the real estate firm Hilton and Hyland, leading to his departure and the establishment of his own brokerage, The Agency, which strained family relations, particularly affecting his relationship with Kyle Richards and the Hiltons, though he and Rick Hilton have since mended their working relationship.
Mauricio Umansky’s got some tea to spill, folks. And it’s piping hot, involving none other than the Hiltons. You heard that right. The drama’s all about his fallout with brother-in-law Rick Hilton and the ensuing family feud.
So, Mauricio, at 53, drops this bombshell in a teaser for Netflix’s *Buying Beverly Hills* Season 2. He’s like, “I think I got kinda screwed by Hilton and Hyland.” And when he says screwed, he means it. Despite the drama, he’s in a good place now. But get this, he was a big deal at Hilton and Hyland, responsible for a whopping 19.6% of their production.
He approached Rick, wanting in on the action as a full partner. But, alas, he was met with a big fat “No.” Imagine that convo, right? Mauricio then turns to his wife, Kyle Richards, concerned about the family dynamics. Kyle, being the supportive gem she is, was all in, despite the potential for family drama.
Mauricio’s move to leave and start his own gig, The Agency, didn’t sit well with the Hiltons. He was baffled they expected some sort of warning. Fast forward, and The Agency is now a big deal, even getting its own Netflix show.
Despite the sour turn of events, Mauricio still respects Hilton and Hyland. But, the fallout hit Kyle the hardest, with her family giving her the cold shoulder. Mauricio’s book, *The Dealmaker*, dives deeper into this, revealing the cut in communication and missed Thanksgiving dinners.
Interestingly, Mauricio and Rick have since mended fences, working together again. However, Kyle and Kathy had their own separate beef, stemming from a *Real Housewives of Beverly Hills* trip to Aspen. Drama, drama, drama.
But, in a heartwarming turn of events, Kathy and Kyle patched things up during a family trip to Aspen. Kathy’s apology, caught on Instagram, was a touching moment.
And for those hooked on the drama, *Buying Beverly Hills* Season 2 hits Netflix on March 22. Can’t wait to see what unfolds next in this saga of real estate and family feuds.
